The thing is, you do speak German if the German tweeter you're following is a poker player. Such is the overlap between poker terms in English and German that even a total monoglot can understand almost everything -- and get a kick out of the bits that don't seem to make sense, until they do.

It's been an up-and-down ride for Heitmann on Day 2 of EPT Deauville, as his timeline tells us. Read it through, read it out loud if you have to, but believe me: You might not think you speak German, but you do. (There's a glossary at the bottom of the page if you're stuck.)
